Kuching Food Festival


 This was the third time we have been to the Kuching Food Festival. Always an experience. This time again, we met with Nick and the rest is history of course. We settled into the 1602 booth for a few drinks to catch up. 

Interesting to hear about the difficulties running a small business in East Malaysia. The legal framework is rather different in East Malaysia and there are different pitfalls.

Appropriate Glasses


Finally managed to buy proper glasses for Cognac. These are proper "Schwenker", you can slosh the liquid around in them like you simulate a tide coming in. Fantastic quality and one can feel why these are so expensive. Happens that the nose on the Cognac is a different experience with these Vinum Brandy Glasses from Riedel.

Welcome Home ?


We fly to Manila, for an exhibition. And where do we go for coffee? Sure: a Malaysian brand. 

Zus is an interesting one as it is positioned a little below Starbucks price-wise, but with better tasting coffee. Not much of a fan of the ambience though as I think it could be cozier. Guess I have to decide if I want to study for an exam or have a good cuppa.
